LYRICS
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Make her the cutest that I've ever seen
Give her two lips like roses and clover
And tell her that her lonely nights are over

Sandman, I'm so alone
Don't have nobody to call my own
Please turn on your magic beam
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream

Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream
Make her the cutest that I've ever seen
Give her the word that I'm not a rover
And tell her that her lonely nights are over

Oh, Sandman, I'm so alone
Don't have nobody to call my own
So please turn on your magic beam
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream

Oh, Sandman, bring us a dream
Make her the cutest that I've ever seen
Give her two lips like roses and clover
And tell her that her lonely nights are over

One day I'll see you in live and that day I'm gonna feel the luckiest girl in the entire world 🥺🥺

Brilliant interpretation of this song. After The Chordettes, Bette Midler, the uber-talented Emmylou Harris, among others, this version is completely re-imagined. Haunting and beautiful...

Behind Her Eyes series on netflix brought me here. And I'm not disappointed even with other songs.

“Mr. Sandman” is a song that encapsulates themes of love, loneliness, and solace found through dreams. At its core, the song expresses the heartfelt longing of someone desperate for love, portraying Mr. Sandman as a magical figure who brings dreams to life.

1. The Significance of Sandman

In Western folklore, the “Sandman” is known to sprinkle sand on the eyes of those who struggle to sleep, bestowing upon them peaceful dreams. In this context, asking the “Sandman” isn’t merely about receiving any dream, but about manifesting the love one earnestly wishes for.

2. The Craving for Love

The lyric, "I'm so alone, don't have nobody to call my own, " reflects a deep-seated yearning for a personal connection. Similarly, "Make her the cutest that I've ever seen" conveys the desire not just for any partner, but for the most endearing and captivating one.

3. The Intersection of Reality and Fantasy

The song suggests that while love may seem elusive in reality, it can be attained in the realm of dreams. The plea, "Please turn on your magic beam, " is a fervent request to transform a dream into reality through a touch of magic.

4. The Pure Wish for a Happy Ending

In the final verses, when the lyric shifts to "bring us a dream, " it expands the desire from an individual wish to a broader hope—that not only the singer but everyone may find love.

5. Overall Assessment

While the melody of “Mr. Sandman” is bright and upbeat, the lyrics reveal a deeper narrative of profound loneliness and the yearning for love. The act of pleading with Sandman to deliver love through dreams evokes a sense of childlike innocence and fairytale charm.

Unbelievably beautiful and haunting. This song sat down next to me, and then crawled inside where it lives. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I have been listening to your music for a while and I always wonder why you don‘t have millions and millions of followers, because I think your voice is the most beautiful voice I ever heard.
I hope I will see you live one day. But the best thing in my life would be to sing this song with you 😍
